Latch - 111827505 - ENGINE LID LOCK CATCH

and

T Handle - 113827561 - ENGINE LID LOCK

I have the seal and washer but I was wonder if someone could post pics of this set up or an install "how to" I am not finding anything

My other question is what is the actual name of the parts (panel pieces) that fit vertically under the front most part of the back seat, down to the floor board.

Thanks!

Or are you looking for the kick panels?

These help any?

This is looking at the latch with the decklid open, so the bottom is UP in this picture.

Can you also post a pic of the latch that's attached to the rear apron. Thanks.

Ok I have this but I think that this one goes where there is 71 in the picture. I can't put this where the pictures says 70.
Anyone has a pictures of this seal fitted please ?

#70, 111823581 is just where the diagram shows it:

I don't know where to buy those seals, not sure if they are available.

I have successfully used a general purpose 1/16" x 5/8" (~1.5 mm x ~16 mm) o-ring such as this as a substitute with good results...

Sorry but I can't understand :shock: :shock:

NOT GOOD

GOOD

70 doesn't look anything like 71...
